Get Access Tokens for Testing

In this article

This method for obtaining Access Tokens is only for test purposes. Do not get manually long-lived tokens and use them in your applications, because that nullifies the security advantages that tokens offer.

Prerequisite

Get Access Tokens Manually

Click Copy Token.
You can now make authorized calls to the Management API using this token.

Set expiration time.
This token has, by default, an expiration time of 24 hours (86400 seconds). After that period, the token expires and you will need to get a new one. To change the expiration time, update the Token Expiration (Seconds) field and click Update & Regenerate Token.

These tokens cannot be revoked so long expiration times are not recommended. Instead we recommend that you use short expiration times and issue a new one every time you need it.
